Visiting Tokyo, Japan? Planning your trip for what to do there?
Do you want a blonde Korean to do all the research for you?
Done.
In October, my bestie Erica, her sister Lisa, and I traveled to Tokyo, Japan! Due to our really chill and phlegmatic personalities, we did not go out and about to do ALL the touristy things and instead, we chilled a lot, went to our favorite places multiple times, ate good food and took it slow––and I LOVED it!
Editing this video made me really happy because I got to relive this happy trip 🙂 I left out the Disney Sea videos out because I shall upload a separate video dedicated just for that! So stay tuned.
Also, I listed out all the places in this video, so if you want to check it out, here’s the list:
1. 7-Eleven– You can find these almost anywhere. Or find another konbini (aka convenient stores) nearby and get all da snacks~
2. Ichiran Ramen – We went to the one in Shibuya.
3. Cat Street – A cute lil street in Shibuya with shops and such! My favorite place during this trip.
4. Paris Miki – A 50s theme (i love it) sunglasses/glasses store on Cat Street (Shibuya). So so cute!
5. The Roastery by Nova Coffee – Also on Cat Street in Shibuya
6. Takeshita Street – A huge shopping street in Harajuku. So much to see. So many people. But awesome.
7. Genki Sushi – We went to the one in Shibuya. Affordable sushi that is fun to eat because you get to order from a screen and it zooms to you.
8. L’Occitane Cafe – A well-located cafe to get a good view of the famous Shibuya crossing. I know everybody goes to the Starbucks (and we did too) but it was way too crowded and there were not enough window seats. 1st floor is the store, 2nd/3rd floors are a cafe.
9. Shibuya Crossing – Duh. The famous crosswalk. Make sure to walk through it yelling “Shibuya sha, sha, shibuya roll call” (Bring It On reference). I did that. ‘Twas great.
10. Asakusa – A district in Taitō, Tokyo that is famous for having Tokyo’s oldest Buddhist temple, the Sensō-ji. Also has a bomb okonomiyaki restaurant.
11. Sensō-ji Temple – Super cool. Super red. Super old.
12. Sometaro – The bomb okonomiyaki restaurant I referenced in #10. You get to flip it yourself. I personally loved the cheese & corn one. omgggg.
13. WaraTako – A takoyaki place located on Cat Street. So good…
14. Studio Ghibli figures – This was not labeled in the video but these cute figurines and such were in a store on Takeshita Street. I forgot the name of the store. Sorry!
